Complete story — includes the ending

NBC executives invite Jerry to pitch a TV show starring himself. George appoints himself as writer, conceiving a "show about nothing" based on themselves, with no story. Kramer knowingly trades a broken radar detector to Newman, which gets him pulled over for speeding. At NBC, Jerry draws the ire of writer "Crazy" Joe Davola upon Kramer and himself. George's pretension as an inspired writer sabotages the pitch, but he thinks he has a chance romantically with Susan Ross, one of the executives. Elaine's romantic Europe trip with her psychiatrist, Dr. Reston, is derailed when his mind drifts to Davola's psychiatric treatment.
